    As you can see from the output, the driver being used is b43-pci-bridge. Make sure it is loaded by posting the output of:
    Code:
    lsmod | grep b43
    Also check to make sure this is the proper driver to use for your device.

    Just Installed the latest daily build of 9.10, exactly the same error on dell mini 10v, same BCM4312, same error, no no wired or wireless network working. Any clue?

    No one said anything about an error. He said his card wasn't being detected. Are you receiving any output that indicates an error? Do you have the proper driver loaded?

    In case you found a solution to your problem please let me know as I am facing exactly the same problem. I have the same card on a Dell Inspiron. Many thanks,

    Please follow the Wireless Troubleshooting Guide and explain WHERE you are having difficulty. I can't help you if you just say "I'm having the same problem."

    Re: upgraded to 9.10, wireless stopped working

    Hi

    I had the same problem when I updated to 9.10, and the only way to get the wireless working was set the DNS servers and search domains to manual configuration.

    This is not a fix, but will help you to get wireless working until the final release.

    Hope it helps!

    Kind Regards
